  • Publication number: 20240149222
    Abstract: This invention relates to a multi-element membrane separator and separation method based on spiral-wound membrane elements. It includes a membrane housing, spiral-wound membrane elements, and baffles on both sides of the membrane housing, designed to secure the spiral-wound membrane elements. The permeate tubes of the spiral-wound membrane elements are connected to the openings in the perforated plates. Sealing rings are respectively provided at the connections of the permeate tubes and the perforated plate openings. This multi-element membrane separator enables a more compact arrangement of membrane elements, reducing the footprint of the membrane separation device. It also reduces the use of materials such as membrane housing, pipelines, and connecting fittings, thereby lowering equipment costs and the difficulty of membrane device assembly.

  • Publication number: 20230146779
    Abstract: An adaptive measurement and calculation method for luminescence values of a chemiluminescence analyzer is provided. A fixed step length is adopted for continuous multi-point reading to obtain a complete correspondence diagram of detection positions and luminescence values. Two nearest luminescence values on the left and right sides of a maximum value are selected, the nearest luminescence values on both sides are connected to form a straight line, and an intersection of two straight lines is taken as an approximate maximum luminescence value. The measurement and calculation method can adapt to random positions of the detected object, and stably obtain the approximate maximum luminescence value, thus reducing increased complex hardware design and cost to confirm accuracy of the measurement position.
